The great big Anakin feedback thread

IronSoldier · February 27, 2019 5:05PM

This is a thread for all Anakin feedback. From retribution to sand.. it's our boy Ani and it belongs here.

To give the best feedback explaining what the issue is and what you would like to see done would be ideal.

For example... The radius of retribution is too high. I would like it reduced by a couple of metres.

KrocketOnBoost · February 27, 2019 1:18PM

Why does Anakin have someone elses head mounted to his shoulders?

AbyssWatch3r · February 27, 2019 1:19PM

I noticed... shoulda got haydensen, I'm really sorry to say. Something just doesn't seem right.

CC_1010 · February 27, 2019 1:20PM

I think he is ok know. He looked bad in the videos we got but I game he looks fine. But by no means beautiful.

Ciena_Ree · February 27, 2019 1:25PM

And there we go. I said they’d mix his Movie and Clone Wars appearances, just the same as they did for Obi-Wan.

What a terrible idea if this is actually what they’re going for when designing these heroes.

ClavinNatas · February 27, 2019 2:02PM

Just played a match against an Anakin. Tell me why he can just fully charge heroic might, while receiving a damage reduction, and then one shot every villain around him that are at full health? This anakin got over 30 kills just doing that all game on a small map like hoth. That HAS to be a glitch, there is no way Dice can be that twisted to make a one shot ability like that for any hero... Please fix.

timidobserver · February 27, 2019 2:05PM

No other way to balance the heroes and villains lol.

Thechosen1_anakin · February 27, 2019 2:07PM

Block it

It only does 400 damage maximum without the star card. That can't one shot any hero from full health. Additionally, it primarily charges from him eating damage while charging it. Just don't attack him and the radius will be much smaller and damage will be much lower.

Note: I don't have an issue with the ability because I think the villain team is OP.

That said, it totally just oneshot from full health.

This needs to be fixed i was playing and got 1 shot from max health by that anakins damage numbers are way too high

greedo1980 · February 27, 2019 2:22PM

Yeh it's a bit much.

Colin777 · February 27, 2019 2:25PM

Ive been playing heroes vs villians and ive been using vader and no one can kill a level one anikan he has more health than vader the default lightsaber attack is just like grievous and can go through blocks when ever he wants and also has four abilities. I dont know how dice didnt see this coming

Colin777 · February 27, 2019 2:26PM

And most of his abilitys give him ammunity from most damge so your pretty screwed if you see him and you dont have your whole team behind you

AbyssWatch3r · February 27, 2019 2:29PM

No. He's already been pre nerfed. Go try him in GA and you'll see he's quite balanced.

JediJulius · February 27, 2019 2:31PM

Ok fine it’s bugged, not leave me the heck alone please. I’m done talking about this.

JediJam · February 27, 2019 2:32PM

Yeah he seems fine to me. I've killed pretty easily a few times

So if you don't attack him, how you gonna kill him?

I havent played GA with him yet but i know 1v1 hvv, anikans the winner

KresusFIN · February 27, 2019 2:39PM

Yes, can confirm. It's broken atm. It doesn't cap at 400 damage like it should.

@F03hammer (I couldn't tag Forge for some reason? :O )

Vikingoverlord0 · February 27, 2019 2:41PM

Okay Anakin is a good hero but he isn't the best at everything and is able to outperform any other villain or hero in the star wars universe. Kylo Ren still has weak stamina compared to the other heroes and villains and seriously what is up with Anakins heroic might ability? You can't force pull him or choke him when he makes that meditative stance. Simply ridiculous... And why four abilities? I don't understand why you needed to put in retribution? I know it is an ability that needs to be charged up to use it..

Best regards

GenxDarchi · February 27, 2019 2:42PM

You shouldn’t be able to force pull him with heroic might, would cause the ability to glitch and he would gain 90% damage reduction, which would be bonkers.

Obi-Wan looks just like Ewan. This Anakin is looks like Hayden from the side, but from the front it's pretty horrible

You know they said that they used Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen to model Obi-Wan and Anakin, right? Obi-Wan looks almost exactly like Ewan, especially after they slightly tweaked his appearance further when they released the Clone Wars outfit.

Also,

Doesn't look too bad to me. It's just the mediocre menu lighting that doesn't do him justice (like Rey).

greedo1980 · February 27, 2019 2:48PM

Animation is spot on. They have really captured the physicality of Hayden. Good job there.

The face is ok. Eyes are too small.

It is so OP! Please try it out in Heroes vs Villains!

Listen, he has an unique animation when he uses it. All ya have to do is not mash or use abilities for about five seconds, and then use whatever abilities you wanted to. This is a LTP issue, don’t attack him when he has heroic might.

Judgemebymysizedoyou · February 27, 2019 2:53PM

I was killed with a full health bossk by heroic might (thats a 600 damage )

Colin777 · February 27, 2019 2:59PM

Hes also just a combo play no strategy needed

Zyder · February 27, 2019 3:02PM

Yeah, Kylo Ren stamina bar is garbage, can't block properly. He was one of my fav villains but now is one of the weakest.

Zyder · February 27, 2019 3:03PM

I think his right side of the face is weird.

Starwarsfanboosk_com · February 27, 2019 3:04PM

anakin broke the game and the devs are proud of themselves

KresusFIN · February 27, 2019 3:07PM

@F8RGE

Please confirm.

AbyssWatch3r · February 27, 2019 3:09PM

Same thing with yodas unleash, bug from launch.

If it is one shotting uninjured Villains then it might be bugged. The CT said its maximum damage is only 400. Even a full health Boba can survive that.

hsf_ · February 27, 2019 3:13PM

Oh I'm gonna have some fun with this.

KresusFIN · February 27, 2019 3:13PM

Don't attack him while he's meditating or whatever.

In GA however, whip out Stinger Pistols and he'll die after his cast finishes. Ez pez

Liguan · February 27, 2019 3:14PM

I stop playing Battlefront 2 and all EA games. Until it's fixed.

Colin777 · February 27, 2019 3:16PM

Thank you, someone else finally, his whatever its called saber block breaking ability it stupid powerful i think it even pushes heroes back like a force push sometimes

KresusFIN · February 27, 2019 3:18PM

His repulse is broken. It's meant to cap at 400.

Can be dodged, or baited, or otherwise avoided by not being near him.

JediJulius · February 27, 2019 3:23PM

Ben just said this on Reddit.

“His damage output is based on the damage he receives, in short...don't hit him.”

“CT [400 damage] is incorrect, he [Anakin] can kill anyone.

Do not hit him, etc...”

Sounds like it might be intentional.

I don’t remember them ever saying that, but regardless, in the trailers, screenshots and gameplay, Obi looks a great deal like his hologram message form in Rebel’s - his beard, eyes and facial features are all a lot like his Rebels appearance. His face is similarly as rounded.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter, the characters are as they are and I like them very much.

Zyder · February 27, 2019 3:25PM

It is absurd.

AbyssWatch3r · February 27, 2019 3:26PM

According to CT it should only be dealing a max of 350 dmg. 400 with the card.
Still going to abuse it though.

I don’t remember them ever saying that,

“Both Dooku and Anakin will be modeled after their prequel film actors, Christopher Lee and Hayden Christensen, respectively.“

From “The voices of Anakin Skywalker and Count Dooku”.

“We’ve modeled Obi-Wan after Ewan McGregor’s appearance in Star Wars Episode 3.”

From “Obi-Wan Kenobi is coming to Star Wars Battlefront II on November 28.”

The_Sith_Apprentice · February 27, 2019 3:28PM

I should have known this was going to happen. People are just screaming for nerfs because they don’t want to use enough brain cells to figure out how to counteract a powerful ability.

Don’t deal damage to Anakin while he is in his Heroic Might stance! This will only make him more powerful and he is able to block all of it.
